KP3944-1 - Lincoln VIKING PAPR Replacement Blower Motor with Cover

Reliable Air Purification for Industrial Welding

The Lincoln Electric KP3944-1 Blower Assembly is the central power unit for the VIKING™ 3250D FGS Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) system. Designed to deliver a consistent stream of filtered air, this assembly ensures that professional welders remain protected from hazardous particulates and metal fumes generated during heavy fabrication. The unit is engineered for reliability and compliance, boasting NIOSH® certification when used as part of the complete VIKING system. This package serves as a direct replacement for damaged or worn-out blower units, ensuring your safety equipment remains operational without the need to purchase an entirely new respirator kit.

Technologically advanced, the KP3944-1 features a smart airflow management system. It offers variable air flow adjustment, allowing the operator to dial in the specific volume of air needed for comfort and breathability. To ensure maximum safety in loud industrial environments, the blower is equipped with a dual-alarm system. It utilizes both audible sounds and physical vibrations to alert the user of low battery levels or filter saturation. This redundancy ensures that safety warnings are perceived immediately, even when wearing hearing protection or working near loud machinery.

The assembly includes the blower motor itself and the essential filter cover assembly, which secures the filtration media in place. It is important to note that this SKU is a replacement component and does not include the lithium-ion battery, HEPA filters, breathing hose, or belt; these items must be transferred from the existing unit or purchased separately. Weighing approximately 1.5 lbs, the unit is designed to minimize back strain, making it suitable for all-day wear in demanding environments.
